Club Penguin Animated Shorts are short animated episodes made by Disney under Club Penguin. They are uploaded on YouTube. On rare occasions, Disney puts these shorts on air on their channels. So far, this is most common in Disney XD Latin America. They were first introduced in December 2011. There are currently eleven episodes, and they are all about two minutes long.

History

From very early on, Club Penguin had always wanted to make cartoons. They had some advertisements with no penguins talking, but they kept working at it. When Disney finally bought Club Penguin, they got the chance they had been waiting for. On December 3, 2011, the first episode aired, Never Wake a Sleeping Sensei.

The Animated Short episodes were proving to be very popular, and Club Penguin began to air Best Seat in the House in select movie theaters across the United States in Winter 2011, in the advertisements before PG movies. In July 2012, Club Penguin released their first song, The Party Starts Now, and began releasing more songs after that, with Animated Short episodes to accompany them. The music videos Cool In The Cold and Anchors Aweigh aired on Disney Channel during commercial breaks in late January 2013 to promote their respective albums.
